'Sister Wives' star Robyn Brown says she feels 'tricked' into monogamy and is angry
  • On Sunday's episode of "Sister Wives," Robyn Brown says she feels "tricked" into a monogamous marriage.
  • Robyn, who was once Kody Brown's fourth wife, is now his only legal or spiritual wife.

TLC's "Sister Wives" star Robyn Brown gets brutally honest about her feelings amid her husband Kody Brown's struggles with his three other estranged wives on Sunday's episode.

"I love Kody, but I never wanted to live monogamy," Robyn says in a confessional interview that airs between scenes of Kody's first wife Meri Brown telling Robyn that she's going to be spending more time at the bed and breakfast she owns in Utah than in Flagstaff, Arizona, where many Brown family members live.

Robyn tells cameras she feels like her marriage is heading toward monogamy, and she's not happy about it.

"I'm really angry. I wanted to live plural marriage," she says. "I'm starting to feel a little tricked or something. Or like, people are making decisions for my life that I did not choose. It's making me very angry and very depressed."

It's unclear who Robyn feels tricked by, but earlier in her conversation with Meri she says that Kody's third wife Christine Brown "destroyed" Kody when she left him. She appears to be implying that Kody's split with Christine (announced in November 2021) was the catalyst for Kody questioning his polygamous lifestyle.

"I'm not going to be responsible for Kody losing his religion. That's ridiculous," Christine tells cameras in her own confessional interview. She adds that she never had enough power over Kody to influence his beliefs.

Robyn officially became Kody's fourth wife in the season one finale of "Sister Wives," when the pair were "spiritually" married in a private ceremony not filmed for cameras.

They have two biological children together, and then as depicted on the show, Meri (who was formerly Kody's only legal wife) divorced Kody in 2014 so that he could legally marry Robyn and adopt her three children from her first marriage.

In an August video interview with People, Robyn said that her husband now calls her "the wife left standing."
